        高虹师妹在大洋彼岸展现琵琶艺术成就,除了至贺以外,还怀着感激之情对以音乐会纪念林石城诞辰100周年聊表谢忱。

Congratulations to Gao Hong, my sister in music, on her outstanding artistry in pipa performance across the Pacific Ocean! I also would like to express my heart-felt gratitude to her for organizing the concert to honor my late father’s 100 th birthday.

       

 高虹师妹怀抱琵琶50年来,在艺术道路上的丰硕成果可圈可点,特别是即兴演奏有口皆碑,能在万里之遥传授琵琶艺术并取得骄人成绩更是可喜可贺。

It has been fifty years since Gao Hong first held the pipa in her arms. She has achieved phenomenal successes on her musical journey, especially her acclaimed in improvisation. Gao Hong truly deserves congratulations and celebrations for her distinguished career teaching the art of pipa thousands of miles away from China.

       

高虹师妹把中华传统文化传播到海外,将颂声载道地列入琵琶艺术国际交流的史册。 

Gao Hong’s success in teaching pipa will be a prominent chapter in the history of international exchanges of pipa and traditional Chinese culture.
